• Versatile Application: Suitable for use in lofts, pitched roofs, suspended timber floors, and even some wall constructions.
• Good Thermal Performance: Provides effective resistance to heat flow, helping to reduce energy bills.
• Acoustic Benefits: Many insulation rolls also offer sound-absorbing properties, contributing to a quieter indoor environment.

• Acoustic Performance: If sound insulation is a priority, check the roll's sound absorption coefficient.
• Ease of Handling: Consider the weight and width of the rolls for easier installation.
